Never used a PZ of any kind.
However, it is faster than my MZ-5. With the AF off, it is as fast, as far
as I could tell, as my LX, except the LX will shoot a continous burst of 36
exposures in about 10 seconds.
This seems to shoot at about 2 FPS, and only for a few frames at full
resolution.
OTOH, the resolution can be dropped to a 3mp equivalent, still enough
information for a good 8x10, and this should improve the number of frames in
the burst significantly.
